Chapter 352: 347 Internet Match: Beauty Like Jade (12) First Watch

Ye Shaohua still picked up vegetables at her leisure with her chopsticks.

There was no surprise, no astonishment.

The old master didn’t understand the specifics, vaguely only making out the name "Ye Shaohua."

But he saw the incredulous looks from everyone else at the table, especially from Li Siqi.

"What’s the person on the phone saying?" Grandpa Ye tilted his head towards Yun Xiao, asking a question.

When Yun Xiao heard the phone call, a trace of confusion also crossed his face, but he reacted faster than the others and quickly resumed his usual expression.

Hearing the old man’s question, he translated it in great detail for him.

"M Polytechnic?" Grandpa Ye might not understand foreign languages, but it didn’t mean he didn’t know of M Polytechnic’s reputation, "Really?"

Truth be told, even Grandpa Ye himself found it hard to believe.

Li Siqi was silent for a moment, "The GRE test? Isn’t the opportunity for the GRE already passed? I heard Miss Ye didn’t go to college, so how did she get a recommendation letter from a tutor?"

The GRE is a self-assessment test for graduate students, in layman’s terms, prepared for senior students, and juniors can also prepare if they are confident enough.

After taking the test, you need a professor’s or tutor’s recommendation letter, with so many people applying to M Polytechnic every year.

Why would they choose you?

Li Siqi had three tutors’ recommendation letters and still failed to get into M Polytechnic; what more could be said of Ye Shaohua?

She had dropped out in her senior year of high school.

As Li Siqi spoke, she glanced at Mrs. Yun and the others, specifically gauging their expressions.

"So, Shaohua got into M Polytechnic?" Xun Peipei covered her lips and laughed directly, and this laugh was certainly not complimentary.

Ye Ming felt that he was losing face quite a bit. He tried to defuse the situation, "These days, there are so many scam calls, and one even reached our family. Dad, hang up the phone."

Li Siqi looked at him and Ye Shaohua, her meaningful glance making Ye Ming feel even more embarrassed.

"Hang up what," Ye Shaohua finished the food in her mouth before she slowly said, "Just tell him I agree."

The latter part was addressed to Yun Xiao.

"Enough, are you trying to embarrass yourself?" Ye Ming was already struggling to keep up appearances, and Ye Shaohua’s words made it even harder for him, "Apologize to the elders quickly, this year you’ve been out mixing with who knows who, and you even took a sales call seriously."

If it weren’t for the concern of being at the Yun Family’s place, Ye Ming would have slammed his chopsticks down.

But watching Ye Shaohua speak more and more outrageously, he couldn’t help but speak up.

"Those with dirty thoughts will think everything is dirty," Ye Shaohua looked up and glanced at him.

Her voice held some shock.

"Is this how I taught you to speak to your elders?!"

It wouldn’t have been such a big deal if not for this matter.

When this was brought up, Ye Shaohua herself could not help but look up, "Have you ever taught me? Then let me ask you, my dear father, you held a coming-of-age ceremony for Ye Ruxue last month; do you remember when my birthday is? Do you know why I’ve never played the piano again?"

Ye Ming’s tone stalled.

He was suddenly taken aback.

When Ye Shaohua was younger, Ye Ming indeed remembered her birthday, but he didn’t know when Ye Shaohua’s existence started to become invisible.

Grandpa Ye watched Ye Shaohua’s emotionless face, finding his own breath momentarily suspended.

His chest felt slightly congested, "Let’s talk about this when we get home. Sorry, they are ignorant and have caused you trouble."

Li Siqi, seeing the state of this group, naturally had a touch of a smile on her face.

"Auntie Yun, please enjoy the food," Li Siqi smiled gently, "Maybe Miss Ye was just joking, but Miss Ye, you can’t jest like this in the future..."

"You submitted an article to Science Journal?" Yun Xiao, who had been communicating with the person on the other end of the phone, finally hung up and looked at Ye Shaohua.

As he spoke, he also interrupted Li Siqi’s words.

Ye Shaohua nodded.

Xun Peipei’s face stiffened, and she nodded with a smile, "I mainly accompany Ruxue to piano competitions more often."

That was all her daughter had going for her, but the truth was, she was so angry that she clenched her fingers tightly in her palm!

"I guessed as much." The Yun matriarch’s face showed understanding as she took a tissue offered by a servant and wiped her mouth.

Luckily, these two haven’t taught Shaohua.

With their ability to distinguish right from wrong and their petty personalities, what kind of person could they raise?

After this meal, the Yun matriarch became even more gentle towards Ye Shaohua.

If it weren’t for Shaohua’s refusal, she would have liked to keep Ye Shaohua at the Yun Family’s house for a few days.

Conversely, the Yun matriarch grew colder towards Li Siqi.

"I just saw on the international news that a laboratory in M Country wants to spend fifty million to buy the scientific research findings of this paper," the Yun matriarch glanced at Ye Ming and then smiled at Ye Shaohua, "Did you sell it? And why did you leave just a ’Y’ for the author credit? If it weren’t for the additional author information, I would have no idea it was you."

The Yun matriarch had been shocked by this news.

Hearing the Yun matriarch’s words, Ye Ming looked at the daughter he had always overlooked with disbelief.

Although he was surprised when he really heard that Ye Shaohua was at M Polytechnic, he wasn’t overly thrilled.

In fact, there was even a hint of irritation.

It irritated him that Ye Shaohua hadn’t informed him about such an important matter.

But it wasn’t until the Yun matriarch’s last remark that he fully grasped the significance of Ye Shaohua’s achievement, unable to take his eyes off her.

The Ye Family’s total assets combined weren’t even close to that amount.

In the past, he had always taken pride in Ye Ruxue. After Ye Ruxue successfully entered a relationship with Chu Yan, his partiality for her had increased.

Ye Ming’s thinking was simple. Chu Yan wanted to use "All Gods Blue Sky" to turn Emperor Entertainment into the top entertainment company in the country.

His goal was to expand the Ye Family’s influence through the Chu Family.

A top science paper might not count for much, but to get a research institution in M Country to offer fifty million—search the whole country and fear you might not find another example, right? Compared to that, Ye Ruxue and Chu Yan really were nothing!
